  • Terrible Service

    October 31, 2019
    Very bad service guy named Daniel lost my keys to my car while I was living there.

  • I'll miss it here!

    May 24, 2016
    I lived here for two years and I'll miss it so much. Yeah, the rooms are a bit small, but the staff and amenities make up for it! The staff will always try to help you and learn your name, and the private shuttle to campus is amazing!

  • So true on the move out charges

    September 29, 2015
    They do really try and gouge you for standard maintenance. Really kind of disgusting on their part.
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Beware--pay an extra month's rent plus for "move out" charges

    September 24, 2015
    Be prepared to pay at least an extra month's rent on move-out. Aspen Heights will charge you for basic cleaning and maintenance work to get the apartment ready for the next renter. What a deal for them! And what a deceptive and unfair business practice. That's even after we asked the office if there was anything needed to be done in terms of cleaning floors and carpet. What a total lack of integrity.

  • Apartment review

    September 6, 2015
    The apartment complex is pretty decent. It's pretty modern, so everything is clean and nice looking, which I like. The only drawback is that the rooms are small for my liking but I still like it here. The staff is pretty good on helping out with problems and and fairly understanding that we are all college students. It's close to the university I attend so that's a plus and there's a bus that takes you to and from school. Overall I like living here, I give it a 3.5 out 5.

  • Good beginnings, terrible ending.

    August 6, 2015
    Aspen San Marcos made their triumphant return and people were excited. They offered many fun events towards the beginning of the year but rarely ever cared about residents in the last 4 months, even before the flooding. The floor plans are different than what the 4 bedrooms look like. There is too much furniture than can fit in the apartment and saying there is a balcony is stretch. For college living it is just below average. The amenities are nice but you can find a better space closer to ...
    campus for about the same price.

  • Not Bad

    July 20, 2015
    I thought the rooms were very small as well as the balcony space. Newly built so didn't have a lot of problems with appliances or anything. For the most part it is a good place to start when you are moving to an apartment for the first time. The shuttle to campus was a plus!
